A stable, non-aromatic, adduct derived from ‘ipso’-nitration
Abstract
Nitration of N-[(6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)methyl]propanamide (5) gave not only the expected products (6) and (7) but also the tricyclic adduct (8), the structure of which was confirmed by a single crystal X-ray analysis.
